مستخلص: |
•Data on linezolid resistance in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium(VREF) are limited.•Among 389 VREF isolates, 7 (1.8%) exhibited resistance to linezolid.•Two linezolid-resistant (LR)-VREF isolates from patients with previous linezolid exposure contained the G2576T mutation.•Five isolates recovered from linezolid-naïve patients contained no known linezolid resistance mechanism.•Linezolid use and horizontal transmission appear to be responsible for acquisition of LR-VREF. |
